4:07 PM View: a Keep Myself Busy Afternoon


 How did I keep myself busy?  Played around with an Excel table.  Did some reading:  Chateaubriand and Milosz.  Did some sighing & some hemming and hawing about going to Kanasta.

  I saw that there was a lot of tweets on X saying that Turdeau was going to announce his resignation.  Although I did come across some details about him staying on as leader until a new leader was chosen.  I even saw a counter sort of tweet saying that anyone who didn’t like Justin was not capable of articulating why they didn’t like him.  To which I could only reply where to start?  Nice as it will be to see Trudeau go, there is still a far too large proportion of Canadians who subscribe to what he believes.

Jimmy Carter died.  He wasn’t as bad a president as Biden.  He did have a few accomplishments you could point to as the peace deal between Egypt and Israel & some deregulation initiatives.  However, I’m not sure he deserves the moniker of being a great ex-president.  He liked to meddle in international affairs in a way that was not good, he was a friend of Castro, and he went along with all the woke stupidity that his party was trying to inflict on the American public.  You wonder if he was like Biden in the sense that he didn’t appear to have any beliefs except in doing what would keep him in good graces with whoever was dictating Democrat party orthodoxy.
